We are given:

The weight of gold in a 22 karat gold object = 0.917 times objects weight.

The weight of gold in a 18 karat gold object = 0.583 times objects weight.

We need to find the weight of gold in 73.5 ounces of statue for 22 karat and for 18 karat.

For 73.5 ounces of statue 22 karat gold = 0.917 × 73.5 = 67.3995 ounces gold.

For 73.5 ounces of statue 18 karat gold = 0.583 ×73.5 = 42.8505 ounces gold.

67.3995 -  42.8505 = 24.549 ounces of gold.

<h3>Therefore, 22 karat gold statue contains more gold and it contain 24.549 ounces more gold.</h3>

HELP FAST! Will give Brainiest i mainly need help on part C.

Part A: First, list multiples for each number. The multiples of 5 are: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, etc. The multiples of 12 are: 12, 24, 36,48, 60, etc. The least common multiple is the first common multiple between the two, in this case being 60. The LCM of 5 and 12 is 60. 

Part B: SImilar to above, list all factors for each number. 72: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, and 72. 81: 1, 3, 9, 27, and 81. The greatest common factor is the highest common number, 9 in this case. The GCF of 72 and 81 is 9.

Part C: To rewrite, we need to take out the 9 by dividing. 72/9 is 8. 81/9 is 9. Therefore, we would get 9(8+9), to equal 153. Your answer here is 9( 8 + 9 ).  Hope this helped!

6(1 + 3R) = 2(10R - 9) -4R
Damm [24]

Answer:

R=-12

Step-by-step explanation:

6(1 + 3R) = 2(10R - 9) -4R

Distribute 6 through the parentheses

6+18R=2(10R-9)-4R

Distribute 2 through the parentheses

6+18R=20R-18-4R

Collect like terms

6+18R=16R-18

Move the variable to the left-hand side and change its sign

6+18R-16R=-18

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

18R-16R=-18-6

Collect like terms

2R=-18-6

Calculate the difference

2R=-24

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

R=-12

if you'd make me brainliest that'd be great, if not its ok as well! I hope this helped!!!
